I read Million Dollar Weekend for you.

If you want to start a business, this is THE book you should read. I’ve read a lot of business books and a lot of them are blah blah blah, a lot of yapping, not a long of actionable bits - but this one is not like that.
I read Million Dollar Weekend in 4 hours while our internet was down - so here are 4 of the biggest lessons from this book.

If you want to make a million write an ebook on how to make a million. Done.

[@bastianrivero]

And sell it for 1 million

[@harrymandel]

that's why more of the books can be summarized in 1 to 3 sentences.

[@sawabidaily4436]

It is not about writing only. but about marketing and sales. impact millions and make millions.

[@RaihanUddin99]

How did that work out for you?

[@mimi.56]

I agree with you😂😂

[@tafsir5191]

1. Go looking for rejections just for the sake of getting rejections. Hone that ability to ask in the right way. 2. Don't abandon anything before doing that 100x after ample experimentation. 3. Market validation is key. 4. Set realistic, small goals.

[@contemplore]

Gee thanks🎉

[@estellesstories7467]

Thanks for this summary! Wishing you well.

[@khwezimvuyana4092]

Epic I like the 1st one sounds more like me 😁

[@johnrodriguez2013]

Noah's book gave me huge motivation. Ain't no effing around, go with his mindset.

[@UTJK.]

Thanks. She doesn't know how to summarize at all.

[@legoruthead]

One of the biggest things I've realized about adulthood is how crazy it is what you can get if you're willing to ask. The fact that this is surprising probably means I'm far too conservative with my requests, setting a rejection goal could really help with that

[@elenasakman]

this is so true

[@donnabrown1518]

I am an author/publisher of a small publishing company. I am bootstrapping the business. It’s amazing the tools that are available to help me reach my dreams. Marketing has been the hardest part, but I have made it a goal to do outreach every day. Today I have a call with a buyer of a big tourist enterprise. I wouldn’t have it if I didn’t put myself out there. Wish me luck!

[@PulpParadise]

Good luck @donnabrown1518 !

KZbin isn't a paycheck, It is a place where you can find opening doors. The quote about 100 was the magic of KZbin. tHanks for the video

[@niamhtoday]

Love this reframing of your own goals! My first step is getting my clothes on a market - I’ve made up a whole website and lots of products and I need to start focusing on smaller steps

[@PulpParadise]

Just start an Etsy shop.

[@lojithvinsuka973]

Thanks a lot for this. I had stopped experimenting for a while and forgot how important it is to keep experimenting. I was searching for something like this to fix my mindset and restart everything I used to do, want to do, and enjoy. You mentioned enough strong points to convince me to start again :)

[@t.arroyo5176]

i just got a job rejection yesterday that crushed me. coming across this video during a time when i'm trying to land a job post-layoff feels very timely. thank you for this awesome content! also kudos to your video editor!

[@MyNameIsDeya]

so sorry you were rejected but also, super proud of you for applying & trying! that's all that's within your control and deserves celebration. :) keep going + optimizing and the yes'es will come!

[@elenasakman]

yes, same with me. But this mindset will help. I will collect rejections and I will put a goal

[@NidhiSingh-eh2cy]

OMG this is a gem. This is literally one of the best videos I have ever seen. Nowadays there are so many KZbinrs that doesn't even provide any value or real steps to take but your video consists of valuable lessons. Thank you. I needed it

[@rivkahrayzltsap9316]

I think it's so cool how authentic you are, and what you value in your youtube account. Also, this was such a great summary of the book. Thankyou so much!

Lower your standards bro

At least you didn't get hitched to the wrong person. Plus the price of gold and silver is increasing. So you've probably made a profit. Great result eh.😊

[@ramonamirzinkeviciene9887]

First time watching you, clicked on your video to check out the book review but kept listening to the end because Your personality is awesome, so glad that KZbin recommended me your channel.

[@ronniezad323]

very spot on! take points:::create rejection goals and cultivate a feedback loop and ask the following 1. Why not? 2. Who is one person you know who would really like this 3. What would make this a no-brainer for you 4. What would you pay for that

[@d33r3st.shrimp]

nothing gets me more excited and pumped to (cozy!) work than seeing you posted a new video 🎀⭐thank you Deyaaaa

[@zanrius]

You can count me in to your 100 attentive subscribers! Thank you for this video. I have a lifelong fear of rejections but somehow you make me want to go out there and face em all 😊

[@adoyizao]

I noticed your dress and commented on it in my head. Then I heard you talk about it. It’s a wonderful piece

[@rafeeqwarfield9690]

I noticed it too and she’s cool for being so open about it

[@AT-it4gx]

Thank you so much for this video Deya!! Just came here after watching your day in the life because it resonated so much. Everything you mentioned here are insights I’ve heard from other sources or revelations i’ve had myself at one point or another, but it’s so easy to hear and instantly dismiss. It clicked differently today watching your video and I truly feel this was the message and answer I have been seeking lately. Thank you!!

[@coachcarenfern]

I truly enjoy you as I hope this for myself when I start to produce my videos consistently

[@MysTarey]

I’m so excited by your channel! I’ve been thinking of starting a business for longer than I’d care to admit but I get overwhelmed my all the details. It’s novel to hear that I can just start by having conversations and to actively seek rejection! Looking forward to hearing more from you and joining your community ❤

[@MyNameIsDeya]

ah i totally understand the struggle -- it took me yeaaaars to even admit I wanted a business of my own. The only way I started was by actually creating a 15-min a day rule for myself where every day for at least 15 minutes, I'd work on my business, even if that was just 15 mins laying on the floor thinking about it haha The small, tiny steps every day made the biggest difference; that business has gone on to make hundreds of thousands of dollars now. It all began with a 15-min commitment! :) Couple that with trying a LOT of times + actively seeking rejection and you can't go wrong! You'll get incredible feedback from potential customers/clients and can then build a business that really solves problems for them + is a win-win for both. Cheering you on -- keep me updated! :)

[@SenorJuan2023]

[@estellesstories7467]

Outstanding content - thank you Deya. I love how you've distilled the key messages and made them immediately actionable.

I listened to this book, but to have someone explain things made way more sense to me. I should go listen to this again. You're doing great, keep it up!

Thank you for making this video, it helped give me some insight on what steps I haven't been taking to build up my small art business. That fear of rejection, really gets in the way and I think it is such a valuable tip to collect them like tiny treasures.

Wow Deya that was such an insightful video. I am in corporate and desperately trying to start my own thing in a hobby that also grew into a love that expands from my industrial psychology vocation.I don't have much time to waste, so this is such a wonderful way to get insights into these books to optimise my time over weekends as I grow my little side gig into something I can also one day feel about as you do. Your passion is contagious. Thank you for your content - I know what it takes to go into creating it and it is high value content that will go further miles in this world where people need substance and value to fuel them.

[@Jennifer_Lewis_Beach_Living]

Excellent video, and I appreciate the “executive summary” approach to your book review. Well done!

[@CViewer70]

EXCELLENT VIDEO…. I stayed until the end…and I’m wasn’t even looking to improve my selling skills…now I am!

[@3carla95]

What is value? That is very subjective. Do you, do want rings your bells and you will attract those who resonate with that. Don’t seek for them - you will naturally attract them. Sometimes through a problem you have and a solution you find that could be the item to offer. Or it can just be a hobby you’re good at and another may want to buy what you do/make or learn from you. Believe and you will see it. If you build it they will come. First comes you and your mindset. Also, your dress/shirt is retro which is all the rage in some circles and cool. I had one that I used for the 70”s auction I chaired. Ashton/Mila were on that 70’s show - it’s all meant to be fun.

[@imamsandrabbis]

[@MyNameIsDeya]

winning!!! good for you on collecting those rejections & make sure you ask for feedback each time so you can optimize, too!

[@abul9052]

The thing I get stuck on when I think about starting a business is what if I spend money on equipment and materials and experiment but then I don’t actually enjoy that type of business much less succeed.

[@padhatam]

Check out the book, it has several ideas for starting a business that would have minimal startup cost. But there are definitely social or emotional costs for rejection lol

[@romarrof9299]

The trick is to sell before you create anything. Try to get people to buy a product (just build a landing page) and see if you can get people to buy. Once you have buyers lined up then build.
